    Way Too Early Too Early Top 25s

    Wolken puts us 25th in his. Kind of disappointed in his effort level here. We?ve come to expect better with him.

    Dallas Morning News Leaves us out of the Top 25

    Espn puts us 19th. Solid effort but a little light

    SEC Country inexplicably leaves us out of the top 25. Not surprising. These are the types of elitist that vote at SEC media days. Buncha fan boys that don’t do research. Brandon Walker needs to answer for this.

    SB Nation ranks us 22. I guess this is a solid effort considering how terrible many other efforts are. Considering the SB Nation is a typical hype machine, I?m a little surprised.

    Gridiron Now guy ranks us 17. https://twitter.com/miller_dave/stat...15625839710208

    Agree to some degree. I had the same problem with Tennessee when I did my rankings a few weeks ago.

    It's not so much Tennessee being good as it is lack of other options. IMO, OM putting together a respectable defense puts them over Tennessee.

    I think Florida is underrated here. I don't love the A&M, LSU, Florida order. The problem is that LSU will be better than their record. LSU may only win 7 maybe 8 games next year tops, but be better than an 8 win A&M team.

    This will be our most talented, deep and experienced team we?ve ever had. Just sucks that the team ahead of us in our division just upgraded at the one position they didn?t have an nfl guy in, QB.

    We have to win all other conference games outside of TTown to have a shot to win the west with arguably our best team ever. Let that sink in.

    When are you guys going to learn that there is only one poll that matters. All these including the AP does not get you to a play off or NY6 bowl. They are just for making talking points for radio and TV. I don't really care about all those polls any more. They can put in who they want. They are irrelevant now.

    Yeah agree on that. I thought the same about LSU too. They probably better than that but their schedule is absolutely brutal and no Guice, new QB and losing some more, could be a tough year for eddie o.
